This week's PhotoHunt theme is VIEW. I find it impossible to pick just one photo that represents this to me. It would be like deciding which of your children you love most.
So, I've decided to offer a very few of some of the spectacular views we have enjoyed in the last few years of travel.
The Gateway Arch in St. Louis, Missouri, USA as viewed at sunset from the east side of the Mississippi.
The Badlands in South Dakota, USA
The Yellowstone River Canyon in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA
The view from the road leading up into the Santa Elena Cloud Forest at Monteverde in Costa Rica.
Empty stretch of beach on the Costa da Morte in Galicia, Northern Spain.
The drive through Parque Nacional da Peneda-Geres, Northern Portugal
View from Castelo de Sao Jorge, across the rooftops of Lisbon with the Elevador de Santa Justa in the center.
Looking down on Kotor and the Bay of Kotor from high above on the cities ancient defense wall. Montenegro

Beautiful views!
Can you still take the elevator to the top of the Gateway Arch? I seem to recall a stunning view from up there as well.
Deborah responds: Yes, Jerry. And, if you and Paul ever decide to come visit me, we can all take that ride together!
